Ideal compilations

[Wrathchild]

OK, so greatest hits collections for some of our favourite bands are a dime a dozen, but no-one ever quite gets it right. Those of you with long memories and high boredom thresholds already know my thoughts on the perfect KISS and Maiden best-ofs, so here's a couple more:

DEEP PURPLE

Disc 1 (1968-1973)

1. Hush
2. Kentucky Woman
3. Hallelujah (I Am The Preacher)
4. Black Night
5. Speed King
6. Child In Time
7. Strange Kind of Woman
8. Fireball
9. Demon's Eye
10. Highway Star
11. Never Before
12. Smoke on The Water
13. Woman From Tokyo

Disc 2 (1974-1998)

1. Burn
2. Might Just Take Your Life
3. Stormbringer
4. You Keep On Moving
5. Knocking At Your Back Door
6. Perfect Strangers
7. Bad Attitude
8. Call of The Wild
9. King of Dreams
10. The Battle Rages On
11. Anya
12. Castle Full of Rascals
13. Seventh Heaven


BLACK SABBATH (Warner Bros years)

Disc 1 (1970-1975)

1. Black Sabbath
2. The Wizard
3. NIB
4. War Pigs
5. Paranoid
6. Iron Man
7. Children of the Grave
8. Into The Void
9. Tomorrow's Dream
10. Changes
11. Snowblind
12. Sabbath Bloody Sabbath
13. Killing Yourself To Live
14. Hole In The Sky
15. Symptom of the Universe
16. Am I Going Insane?

Disc 2 (1976-1987)

1. Dirty Women
2. Never Say Die
3. Neon Knights
4. Children of the Sea
5. Heaven and Hell
6. Die Young
7. Turn up the Night
8. Sign of The Southern Cross
9. Mob Rules
10. Trashed
11. The Dark/Zero The Hero
12. Seventh Star
13. No Stranger to Love
14. The Shining

Each of these double discs would come packaged with full lyrics, comprehensive liner notes and band photos from all eras.

Any thoughts on these or other compilations you'd release if you were in charge? I reckon The Ozzman Cometh needs a bit of revision, but I don't know enough about solo Ozzy to do it myself.

And yes, before anyone asks, I'm most dreadfully bored today .

You chould have more Steve Morse era purple. You left off Ted the Mechanic, Sometimes I feel like Screaming (one of Purples finest from any lineup) and maybe even Any Fool Kno That.

I'd definatley leave out call of the wild and King of Dreams. Joelene Turner doesnt deserve to be on there. Also a few more tracks from Burn/Stormbringer. Maybe 'Hold On', just for Blackmores delicious solo, and defniatley a few more from Come Taste the Band.... Gettin Tighter has an awesome riff... and Comin Home has a great solo from Bolin as well. A great, fast paced rocker!!

Oh, and I'd add in Fools and No one Came from the Fireball album.... Lazy and Pictures of Home from Machine Head, Rat Bat Blues, and Place in Line from Who DO We Think We Are

 

[Spiff]

When are they releasing another studio album, Sprucey?

Ooh, and I saw "The Best Of Glenn Hughes" today. I'm getting it as soon as I get paid (or maybe even on Friday if my tax cheque clears by then).

I dunno Spiff. Next year sometime, but they have been saying that for a long time now. I am becoming very frustrated with Purple. They release about 10 billion live products a year. I recently bought their new DVD Perihilion which was recorded last year. It is a pretty good dvd, but I need something new. They are beccoming a joke I reckon. They have a shitload of talent at the moment with Steve Morse, so they should utilise it!

Best of Glenn Hughes huh? Wonder what songs are on that. I really should make you a copy of Addiction. Very good hard rock album with awesome vocals

[Spiff]

Sprucey - it's a 2CDer so it has stacks of songs! Can't remember many of them off the top of my head... I think the best ones from Burning Japan Live are on it, cos most of the songs I knew had (live) next to them.

 

[TRrEiTxIxRiE DTrash]
